YOUNG MIR. GRADY

Young Mr.. Grady, of Atlanta
Constitution, who made such hit
in an after dinner speech in New
York two or three weeks ago, and
who has been talked about as a fiji
subject to nominate for vice presi
dent on the democratic ticket, was
a poor young man at the time of
Iilden's nomination, in 1876, but
soon after that he wrote up a south
ern riot in which there were SO
many choice points that he was
given position as reporter on the
paper. At about that time friend
put him in a position to get stock in
a railroad company which rose to a
fabulous price aud Grady unloaded
to find himself in place to buy an
interest in the paper. Since then
he has been growing. lie certainly
is bralDy young man. He is very
popular at the South and his speech
at New York has made him popular
ut the North. Last spring, when
n distinguished citizen of Louisi
ana swept from that state across to Sa-
vannah, making speeches and draw
ing great crowds, Mr.. Grady intro
duced him to the hungry populace
of Atlanta, declaring that not since
the days of the coming of Christ
had 10 great an honor fallen upon
community as the return of Jeffer-
son Davis whom, he said, would
speak to the people. If Mr.. Grady
had made his New York speech be-
fore he introduced that old viper,
jeff Davis, in such a manner, he
would not have placed Mr.. Davis
on a par with the Saviour.-Sunday

LOGAN rs DEAD.
BY cHARLEs j. ErArrIg.

Desd, Oh. that word has dreary sound,
From white lips WHISPERED in grief profound;
Dead and we start at the death kings call,
At the palid face and the sable pail.
MID the stifled sobs and the bright tears shed,
Ger the coin'd form Of our soldier dead.
Logan is dead and the voice IL still
| That 50 oft was heard on the field and hill,
In the muster and march, by the mount and
shore,
IN the fight, in the charge, In the battles roar
For our land, for our flag in Columbas cause
! For free Constitution and equal laws.
W. followed his sword and beheld il CLEAN.
by mountain and forest, by river and stream,
when IT'S flash was the signal of victory,
For a land united, a Nation free,
Oh! fold him away in our hag SO dear,
With patriots sigh and a soldiers tear.
Logan Is dead! let the warrior sleep,
Mid the grief Of Nation where millions weep,
Oh lay him to rest mid the grand array
or the patriot dead who have passed away,
Believed by the tears Of Il people shed
For the true and brave FOR our soldier dead
Are the men who wore and adorned the blue
And first mid the soldiers who weep to-day
Are the gallant hearts who in blouses gray
He met mid the clangor Of steel and lead
With grief sincere DER our warrior dead
Lay the soldier down with a Nations praise.
with hero's crown. with imperial bays.
Peace to his relies oh. let him rest
With immortal stars on his patriot breast.
Let the laurel bright, and the cypress wave
Their living green DER the warriors grave.
JoHN Roach the old ship. builder

now, having passed the meridian of
age and completed his Goth year, he
merely acted as any business man
would do, and in such action sent
them their unsettled accounts"

nominated Legislative officials, which

The Indiana Democracy has writ.
ten itself down the most stupendous
ass of the century. Their lawless-
ness and revolutionary methods are
without excuse rs they are without
legal authority. Ia 1884 the Demo.
Gratis carried Indiana, electing Gen
eral VI. ID. Manson Lieut-Governor,
for the term OF four years. Manson
was afterward appointed to a Fed
eral office, leaving the Lieut-Gov-
ernorship vacant. Last fall the Dem.
ocralic state convention first met
and nominated candidate for Lieut.
Governor to fill vacancy. The Re
pubhcans subsequently did likewise,
nominating Colonel Robertson, who
was elected, also respectable ma
jorty in the lower house of the leg
islature, But, owing to number
OF hold-Over Senators, the Demo
Gratis retain control of the Senate.
AT the session of 1856 Senator Green
Smith, Democrat, was elected

absurd theory was propounded 10y
the Democrats that President pro
TEN. Smith held over as such. ana
became Acting Lieut. oyernor-that
the election of a Lieut-Goyernor was

Logsn's share of the profits SO far Will
reach about $50, 900, and the generals
death may be expected to increase its
sales. The plan of the book is similar to
Greeley's Great American Conflict, that
is, it gives political history of the rebel
lion, tracing its beginning from very soon
after the revolution, and quoting freely
from the prominent sol Fhern politicians to
prove the existence of well defined con
spiracy TO make this country a slave-hold-
er's oligarchy instead of democratic re-
public. But General Logan went further
than this, assuming that the conspiracy
still exists, and as ne stated in his preface,
contemplating it in its still more secret
and perhaps more sinister development Of

ELDER BLOOM-A REMINISCENCE

The faint peculiar odor steals
With powerful spell my senses DER
The creamy blooms charm reveals
As blossoms never did before.
Like wine it sets
My heart to throbbing
From keen delight
To saddened sobbing,
For secret pain in the weird perfume
Creeps DER my heart from the elder bloom
Oh, beautiful, witch-like elder bloom
Can | forget where l learned thy power
In loves first dawn? When the campus
gloom
Lent potent spell to the happy hour?
The world was grand,
For love seemed true,
And my heart was full
OF love and you.
But the fragrance fed from the cherished
flower
For l thought love dead in that summer
hour.
Again l think OF a festal eve
When DER my hearts most lonely gloom
Again fairy message bEeathed
From bunch Of rose and elder bloom.
Could | believe
The story true!
You brought the rose
To vouch for you.
/ kept them both, and the charm was ours,
And the elder plumeS were bridal flowers.

KANSAS LABOR COMMISSIONER.

1t seems that cur state for the past year
has been irdulging in the luxury Of a La
Dor Bureau and a commissioner The
Commonwealth yesterday publishes a
synopsis of his report in tabulated form.
If his report generally is as far off as it is
in the case Of Sedgwick county, then it is
worse than worthless and will work an
injury rather than good. Sedgwick coun-
~ is put down as the thirteenth county in
manufactures, with a capital invested of
$500, coo, and 119 people employed. We
don't know where the commissioner got his
statistics. The EAGLE last spring publish
ed list Of the manufacturing industries in
this city, giving accurate details as to
names, character, number of people en-
ployed and capital invested. Again last
week We republished a table of cotem-
porary showing up the same interest. In
stead of 5000 coo capital and 40 people
employed in manufacturing in the county,
Wichita has IL establishments in which
manufacturing is carried on, in which work
are employed 200 people, the weekly pay
rolls for whose labor makes sum total of
$40, 49,, or $3.50, 600 annually.
